4th Dublin Open Ultimate Frisbee Tournament (Outdoors) April 17th/18th 1999
Hello and welcome to the fourth Dublin Tournament, this is your invitation
to take part in what has proved to be an enjoyable and successful tournament
over the past three years. Entries from both teams and individuals are
welcome. The cost is (Irish) 60 punts (76.92307692308 Euros) to enter a
team, or 5 punts per individual. - If necessary consider this as an invoice
and we will give you a receipt. If you are writing cheques please address
them to the 'Irish Flying Disc Association' but as long as you confirm that
you are coming then you can pay on arrival. We'd appreciate being paid in
Irish pounds.
Location
Trinity College's Santry Playing Fields just off the Airport Road. It's
outdoors, lush green fields, even a few rabbits, and with the milder climate
of Ireland temperatures at that time of year are usually 5 -10 degrees¡
warmer than the UK.
Date - Saturday & Sunday April 17 & 18
This is after the clocks change so there will be an extra hour of daylight,
and perhaps more importantly the beginning of the later summer drinking
hours in all Irish pubs.
Tournament Format
3 Irish teams and hopefully another 12 from overseas, but no teams will be
turned away. There will be leagues on the first day and the finals on the
Sunday.
The Craic
This, as they say, has been mighty over the past three years, with a samba
band and a world music 9-piece female accapella band supplying the
entertainment. We will be organizing something similar this year, but rest
assured, the party should be as kicking as ever.
Accommodation
Over the past three years, the majority have stayed in the cheap and
cheerful hostels in town. Prices range from 6 - 8 punts, 14 punts for B&B's,
and 50 punts for Jury's hotel if you really feel like splashing out. We're
also happy to put up as many people as we can - but if you're thinking of
doing this give us some notice. For information about hostels look in the
Lonely Planet Guide to Ireland, it has all the phone numbers, faxes etc. We
also have a list of hostels and B&B's from last year, which we can send you,
if you need it. Be advised that Dublin can be quite busy at weekends, so
book early.
The two main hostels we recommend are as follows:
Issac's Hostel 2 Frenchman's Lane +353 1 874 9321
Jacob's Inn 21 Talbot Place +353 1 855 5660
Transportation
Ryanair have some exceptional deals on right now : 20 punts one way from
Dublin to London (as well as Paris and Brussels) but, understandably, there
is limited availability. Aer Lingus have a two for 99 punts return as well.
So, it pays to book early.
OK, so that's your invite if you're coming let us know, and any questions
feel free to e mail or phone. More details (including web site) to follow.
